You are such a wonderful teacher. That was an excellent video. The follow through on how to spin them was very insightful. I appreciate everything you do. I love videos like this and judging from the amount of comments so does everyone else. The videos on how to make rolags (fauxlags) are usually pretty generic and uninspiring. Your tutorials are the opposite. I really look forward to them.

Thanks for sharing your process on these! I loved the fibers when you unboxed them, so I'm really happy to see you prepping and spinning them already. And on a blending board! I got a blending board last year and, while I've only used it a couple of times, I've really enjoyed the process. Mostly, I've made a bunch of mini batts (taking the whole thing off the board similar to how you do, but then unrolling and folding them instead), and I just want to shove my hands into the pile. They're so fluffy.

Thank you for walking us through blending with the board. I recently made my own board and have only used it a couple of times. I was not happy with the 'rolags' I made because they were too tight, I see now, and they spun in a lumpy way. I'm now finishing those by predrafting them a lot. Now I see how to make them to suit my needs and I don't feel like I'm being a wimpy spinner by predrafting either. And I see how 'glazing' can blend in and really subtly add to the depth of the spin.
@FiberLoveDiary

I don't think it's wimpy. I'm going to draft before or during, so why did it matter when I do it? I just like the way the first drafting loosens it do I can see what's coming better ❤️

I don’t have a blending board (yet) but had the opportunity to try someone’s drum carder at a spinning meet up. It was very experimental and the yarn I made wasn’t what I expected. The yarn you created is beautiful! I’ll be coming back to this video as a reference.
